CoreAge Rx
What we like
- Flat, all-in monthly price with no intro-rate step-ups after month one
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on one account
- Available in all 50 states
- Straightforward, low-friction cancellation
The caveats
- Not the cheapest — flat-price challengers like Trimi Health and Alan Meds undercut its sticker price
- No FDA-approved brand-name option (compounded only)
- Does not yet publicly name its 503A/B pharmacy partner
Aurelius Health Group
What we like
- Pricing fully published and bundled: $89 first month, then $199/mo all-in — more transparent than most compounded brands
- LegitScript Certified
- Care-inclusive model: consults, monthly monitoring, and secure messaging rather than Rx-only
- Unusually candid about the limited evidence base for microdosing
The caveats
- The advertised $89 is a first-month new-patient rate; every month after it is $199
- This is a 1 mg microdose programme and nothing else — no labelled therapeutic dose is sold, so it is not an alternative to a full-dose prescription
- No state count is published, only 'most US states', confirmed at intake
- The site's own comparison table calls 2.4 mg/week the tirzepatide 'standard full dose'; 2.4 mg is the semaglutide maintenance dose, and tirzepatide is labelled 2.5-15 mg/week
- Compounded tirzepatide is not an FDA-approved finished product
